Xyron and Epiphany Crafts - Day Four Blog Hop

It's so much fun when two awesome companies pair up to bring you a week of inspiration - and this week Xyron and Epiphany Crafts have teamed up.  Be sure to check out the blogs for more inspiration and giveaways.

I've come up with a 3-in-1 Box to share with you today.  You may ask, what do you mean, 3-in-1?  Well, at first glance you see a single project....but the sliding lid to this box is actually, a tag.

And inside this little box, is tucked an adorable mini album. 

 

So here is the whole set shown together.  I think this will be a perfect idea to use anytime I need to put together a little gift for someone.

Stamp the border from the Summer Season set with white pigment ink along the bottom of the base of patterned paper. Distress the edges, and paint around the edges with the 3D Paint. Cut two of the fancy gate toppers and ink the edges.  Glue to the base so that the tips are lined up to the center of each outer edge. Stamp the winter home and die cut.  Color with distress inks.  Add fine glitter to the areas of snow. Apply to card with foam adhesive. Stamp the Sentiment set, and cut the words out for your sentiment. Glue to card.
